§ 45. Mr. Galbraithasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he permits the South of Scotland Electricity Board to use any fuel it wants to fire its electricity generating stations; and what directions he has given on this matter.

The Board, however, requires my consent to any proposal to construct, extend or convert a generating station, and all such proposals involve a choice of fuel.
